Have you ever wondered how to use the sketches that you see online and in the scrapbooking magazines? Well ... members of OzSwap can view the new tutorial uploaded today all about how to use sketches for your scrapbooking. There is a step by step series of photos showing the creation of a page from a simple sketch. Check it out!

For this swap you will be assigned a partner, and create a 3 piece page set & provide leftover card & pattern paper to match a particular photograph. Then all they need to do is ... just add cardstock!

OzSwappers are playing a game of bingo, and the criteria for joining the game is that you must make a donation to the Victorian Bushfire appeal. You can make your donation any way you like ... cash in a bucket at the cricket, online with the VISA, through your child's school, bank deposit ... and if you are truly strapped for cash why not donate goods or your time? Everyone chooses 10 words from a list of 30, and we will start calling the game on Monday. Are you an OzSwapper? Check the OzSwap posts for more details.

For this swap everyone is going to choose a fun, cool, clever, awesome word (like beach, baby, family, fun, friend, cool, cuddle ... whatever) ... and make 6 identical swap items. Then they get all swapped around and everyone will receive 6 different items in return. This is a swap item from last year, and you can see that this is what you could do with the word 'laugh' ... just a little example :)

What? You've never joined a swap before? You're not an OzSwap member?! Gosh ... we'll have to do something about that! :D Head over to OzSwapTillYouDrop, apply for membership (and return that completed questionnaire within 3 days) ... and you too can know the thrill of receiving awesome scrapping goodies in the post instead of bills!

Welcome to the OzSwapTillYouDrop blog. What is OzSwap? An Australian swap group for scrapbookers!

We have a new swap every week ... sometimes it's a theme, other times a colour, technique, product or specific paper line swap. It's a great way to try new things and receive work from other scrapbookers.
